Billy Bob Jolliff is seeking in excess of $100,000 in damages from CSX Transportation, Inc. for injuries, pain and suffering, lost earnings and medical expenses.

Jolliff, a conductor, filed suit in St. Clair County Circuit Court Oct. 24 claiming he had sought medical treatment for pain in his elbows while he was employed by CSX.

According to the suit, Jolliff was required to perform tasks wich exposed his upper extremities to repetitive motions, forceful gripping, vibration and awkward positions for unreasonably extended periods of time on a daily and continuous basis.
